LaVar Ball isn't worried about refunds of ZO2 Prime shoes

The Big Baller Brand’s redesign of Lonzo Ball’s ZO2 Prime signature shoe could end up costing LaVar Ball’s company some serious scratch—not that the Father of Balls is worried about it.

According to the announcement of the ZO2 Prime “remix” by SLAM’s Franklyn Calle, customers who preordered the previous version of the ZO2s and aren’t satisfied with the new design can refund their original purchase.

LaVar, though, seems confident (surprise, surprise) that he won’t have to send out too many (if any) $495 checks.

“What happens if you ordered a 2017 diesel, and I came out and told you, sight unseen, that I was giving you a 2018 Bugatti for the same price?” Ball told ESPN’s Darren Rovell. “You wouldn’t ask for a refund.”

That comparison may be overblown (another shocker…), but Mr. Big Baller has a point. So far, reviews of the new shoe—which the family claims to be the lightest ever made for basketball—have generally been positive.

In truth, most sneakerheads won’t really know what to make of the remixed ZO2 Primes until they ship in November.

Fans will get their first extended glimpse of the shoes on Lonzo’s feet when the Los Angeles Lakers open their NBA preseason schedule against the Minnesota Timberwolves in Anaheim on Sept. 30.
